A writing instrument comprising:
- a writing leg having a writing tip extending from an end of the writing leg, wherein the writing tip dispenses a writing material to form an indicia of writing;
- a gate segment;
- a joint between the writing leg and the gate segment, wherein the joint is proximate to the writing tip, includes a grip fixed to and extending from the writing leg, said grip has an end opposite to the writing leg which is adjacent the gate segment at least when the gate segment is in a closed position, and said grip is to be grasped between a forefinger and thumb of a hand while the hand writes with the writing tip, and
- a third leg attached at one end to the writing leg at a location distal to the writing tip and having an opposite end adjacent to the gate segment when the gate segment is in a closed position, wherein said writing leg, gate segment and third leg define an aperture sufficiently large to receive a plurality of fingers simultaneously of a hand.
